A Day of Wings Unfurled

On this day of dreams and hearts unfurled,
We stand on the edge of our little world.
Caps in hand and gowns so bright,
We gaze at the dawn of a future in sight.

Tears gently trace paths down our cheeks,
As we reflect on the years, the days, the weeks.
Laughter echoes in these hallowed halls,
Memories painted on the classroom walls.

Friends, now family, we’ve journeyed as one,
Through sleepless nights and the rising sun.
We’ve weathered storms, faced fears untold,
Found our courage, our voices bold.

In the eyes of each, a story is spun,
Of battles won and the race we’ve run.
Teachers, mentors, guiding lights,
Illuminating our darkest nights.

A bittersweet symphony fills the air,
As we bid farewell with a whispered prayer.
For the past that’s shaped us, the bonds we’ve made,
The love that in our hearts will never fade.

The world awaits with arms wide spread,
A canvas where our dreams are fed.
But here and now, in this sacred space,
We cherish the time, this precious place.

With trembling hands, diplomas clutched tight,
We step into the future, hearts alight.
Grateful for the journey, the lessons learned,
And the fire within us that forever burned.

Today we soar, with wings we’ve earned,
A new chapter, a page now turned.
Forever bound by the days we’ve known,
In the gardens of our souls, we’ve grown.

And though we part, paths winding anew,
Our spirits united, steadfast and true.
In every challenge, every new start,
We’ll carry this day within our heart.
